d. To shove the pin inside the piston, making its ends flush with the piston walls, use the Tangent
constraint and pick the two subentities described here:
: dmTangent3d
Select a pair of subentities: (Pick one end of the pin; see blue outline in the figure below)
Left: Selecting an end of the pin as the first tangent surface; right: Selecting the outside of the piston as the second tangent surface
Entities/subentities in set: 1
Select a pair of subentities: (Pick the outside of the piston, shown outlined in blue in the
figure above)
The constraint snaps the pin inside the piston.
Pin snug inside the piston

constraints used.
